Advanced Certificate in Architectural CADD
The Diploma course at CADD Centre Lanka allows you to have a basic + intermediate level learning in your respective field. All Diploma programs are a combination of 2 (or 3) certificate level programs that broaden your skill set in the chosen domain. You can register individually for each course and ultimately achieve Diploma level on completion of both (or all the three prescribed) courses.
Since our courses are skill based, the basic minimum educational qualification to join a Diploma programme is A Level. However certain advanced tools might require a pre-requisite, kindly cross check with the program coordinator for course specific details.

AutoCAD module will teach the students to handle the software with the basic tools and they will learn how to plan and draft 2D drawings, which will then advance up to the 3D designs level.
Autodesk Revit Architecture is a Building Information Modelling software tool which allows users to design a building and its components in 3D, annotate the model with 2D drafting elements and access building information from the building models database. Revit comes with tools to plan and track various stages in the building's lifecycle, from concept to construction and later demolition.
Autodesk 3ds Max software provides a comprehensive 3D modelling, animation, rendering, and compositing solutions for different industries.
This Advanced Certificate is offered to students to be qualified to use the software through Two pathways, which are:
Autodesk AutoCAD 2D & 3D + Revit Architecture
Autodesk AutoCAD 2D & 3D + 3D Studio Max
